Answer:
d) An atom of arsenic has one more valence electron and more electron shells than an atom of silicon, so the conductivity increases because the arsenic atom loses the electron.
Explanation:
This is an example of a n-type semiconductor. The additional electron introduced to the 'grid' of silicon atoms causes an increase in the conductivity of the silicon. This additional electron is introduced as arsenic loses its extra electron.
Answer : The volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL
Explanation :
Charles' Law : It states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.
Mathematically,

where,
are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.
are the final volume and temperature of the gas.
We are given:

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

Therefore, the volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL
The ground<span> state of an electron, the energy level it normally occupies, is the state of lowest energy for that electron. ... An electron </span>can become excited<span> if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby </span>atom<span> or particle. (I do not take credit for that answer)</span>
